"Superintelligent" AI could be disastrous.

More than 800 top experts, faith leaders and public figures just released
a statement calling for a ban on AI superintelligence until it's safe.

Let’s build on that now.

John,

Reckless tech billionaires are racing to build AI ‘superintelligence’ -
raising massive ethical and security concerns.

From controlling nuclear weapons, to replacing millions of jobs, to
creating deadly viruses - unfettered AI development could have
catastrophic consequences for us all.

And it’s keeping top experts and scientists awake at night. 800 Nobel
Laureates, CEOs, faith leaders and public figures have put their names
behind a powerful new call to ban this advanced AI until it’s safe: the
Statement on Superintelligence.

That’s the foundation. Now it’s up to us to build a people powered
campaign so big that our governments have to respond.

[ [link removed] ]Sign the Statement on Superintelligence, and help make this so big that
governments cannot ignore.

AI experts believe that superintelligence could be less than ten years
away, and they warn that we do not know how to control it. That’s why
hundreds of leading public figures are calling for AI tools to be
developed securely and for those tools to be targeted at solving specific
problems in areas like health and education.

Recent polling shows that three‑quarters of U.S. adults want strong
regulations on AI development, preferring oversight akin to
pharmaceuticals rather than the tech industry’s "self‑regulation." And
almost two-thirds (64%) feel that superhuman AI should not be developed
until it is proven safe and controllable, or should never be developed.

Big Tech lobbyists say that a moratorium could give rogue actors or states
an advantage. But that argument underestimates the catastrophic potential
for all of humanity as advanced AI is developed – regardless what country
it’s ultimately made in, or if we ever really achieve “AI
superintelligence”.

Among the 400+ initial signers of the Statement on Superintelligence are
retired military leaders and security advisors, journalists and academics,
policy-makers, priests and CEOs. Let’s add our names too, and show
governments and Big Tech that it’s time to act.

Just in the last month, Amazon’s Jeff Bezos and OpenAI’s Sam Altman have
admitted that there’s an AI investment bubble. As the bubble threatens to
burst, the pressure on AI companies to cut corners, cover-up mistakes, and
ignore warnings, is only going to increase.

That’s why we need to speak out NOW.
